This cheesy broccoli and bacon quiche is loaded—and I mean loaded—with lots of other good stuff. It has so much good stuff he doesn’t even realize he’s eating an egg-based dish!

To Crust, or Not to Crust?

That is the question. This cheesy broccoli and bacon quiche is absolutely delish without a crust. In fact, that’s how I’ve almost always made it.

If you want a crust on your quiche, you can use a recipe for your favorite crust. If you’re looking for a great grain-free alternative, you can try this parmesan rosemary crust. It’s absolutely divine with this quiche!

Substitutions for this Cheesy Broccoli and Bacon Quiche

If you’re not as big of a fan of broccoli as my broccoli-crazed son, you can substitute for another vegetable of choice for this cheesy broccoli and bacon quiche.

And of course, if you don’t like bacon (but who doesn’t like bacon…what a silly thing to say!) or maybe if you just don’t have bacon on hand you could substitute with sausage or ham or mix up your meats (this photo above is a mix of ham and bacon). The possibilities for recipe alterations are quite endless!

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Butter a 9 inch pie plate.

If using a crust, press the crust into your pie plate. You can make this with or without a crust - we like it equally well either way. If you'd like to make it with a crust, use your favorite crust. I would recommend trying this parmesan rosemary crust.

It looks delicious but is there another cheese that can be used in place of monterey jack? I’m not a huge fan of most cheeses. The only ones I pretty much like are cheddar, mozzarella and parmesan, and even those in moderation. What can I say, I’m a picky eater, LOL!!
